About this award

This is a $279,633.25 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Chicago for continuing Phase 2 development and testing of synchrotron micro-X-ray absorption fine structure (micro-XAFS) and micro-X-ray diffraction (micro-XRD) techniques. These techniques are aimed at studying picogram extraterrestrial samples, typical of current and future sample return missions. The award has a completion date of July 25, 2023 and does not have a set-aside designation, reflecting the University of Chicago's status as a large, established research institution. This grant supports the university's ongoing efforts to advance analytical capabilities for the study of small extraterrestrial samples, which is of critical importance for NASA's planetary science and sample return programs.

Description

The objective of this proposal is to continue phase 2 development and testing of synchrotron micro-xafs and micro-XRD techniques aimed at studying picogram extraterrestrial samples, typical of sample returns both current and future. These techniques
